Three-body structure of low-lying 18Ne states
We investigate to what extent 18Ne can be descibed as a three-body system
made of an inert 16O-core and two protons. We compare to experimental data and
occasionally to shell model results. We obtain three-body wave functions with
the hyperspherical adiabatic expansion method. We study the spectrum of 18Ne,
the structure of the different states and the predominant transition strengths.
Two 0+, two 2+, and one 4+ bound states are found where they are all known
experimentally. Also one 3+ close to threshold is found and several negative
parity states, 1-, 3-, 0-, 2-, most of them bound with respect to the 16O
excited 3- state. The structures are extracted as partial wave components, as
spatial sizes of matter and charge, and as probability distributions.
Electromagnetic decay rates are calculated for these states. The dominating
decay mode for the bound states is E2 and occasionally also M1.Comment: 17 pages, 5 figures (version to appear in EPJA
Computer Visual Syndrome in Medical Students From a Private University in Paraguay: A Survey Study
"Purpose: To determine the prevalence and factors associated with computer vision syndrome in medical students at a private university in Paraguay.
Methods: A survey study was conducted in 2021 in a sample of 228 medical students from the Universidad del PacĆfico, Paraguay. The dependent variable was CVS, measured with the Computer Visual Syndrome Questionnaire (CVS-Q). Its association with covariates (hours of daily use of notebook, smartphone, tablet and PC, taking breaks when using equipment, use of preventive visual measures, use of glasses, etc.) was examined.
Results: The mean age was 22.3 years and 71.5% were women. CVS was present in 82.5% of participants. Higher prevalence of CVS was associated with wearing a framed lens (PR = 1.11, 95% CI: 1.03ā1.20). In contrast, taking a break when using electronic equipment at least every 20 min and every 1 h reduced 7% (PR = 0.93, 95% CI: 0.87ā0.99) and 6% (PR = 0.94, 95% CI: 0.89ā0.99) the prevalence of CVS, respectively.
Conclusion: Eight out of 10 students experienced CVS during the COVID-19 pandemic. The use of framed lenses increased the presence of CVS, while taking breaks when using electronic equipment at least every 20 min and every 1 h reduced CVS.
Observation of a New Excited Ds+ Meson in B0 ād-D+K+Ļ-Decays
Using pp collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4 fbā1 collected with the LHCb detector at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, the B0 ā DāDĆ¾KĆ¾Ļā decay is studied. A new excited DĆ¾ s meson is observed decaying into the DĆ¾KĆ¾Ļā final state with large statistical significance. The pole mass and width, and the spin parity of the new state are measured with an amplitude analysis to be mR Ā¼ 2591 6 7 MeV, ĪR Ā¼ 89 16 12 MeV, and JP Ā¼ 0ā, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. Fit fractions for all components in the amplitude analysis are also reported. The new resonance, denoted as Ds0Ć°2590ĆĆ¾, is a strong candidate to be the DsĆ°21 S0ĆĆ¾ state, the radial excitation of the pseudoscalar ground-state DĆ¾ s meson
Observation of Multiplicity Dependent Prompt Ļc1 (3872) and Ļ (2S) Production in pp Collisions
The production of Ļc1(3872) and Ļ(2S) hadrons is studied as a function of charged particle multiplicity in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2 fbā1 . For both states, the fraction that is produced promptly at the collision vertex is found to decrease as charged particle multiplicity increases. The ratio of Ļc1(3872) to Ļ(2S) cross-sections for promptly produced particles is also found to decrease with multiplicity, while no significant dependence on multiplicity is observed for the equivalent ratio of particles produced away from the collision vertex in b-hadron decays. This behavior is consistent with a calculation that models the Ļc1(3872) structure as a compact tetraquark. Implications for the binding energy of the Ļc1(3872) state are discussed
Measurement of CP observables in BĀ± ā D(*)KĀ± and BĀ± ā D(*) Ļ Ā± decays using two-body D final states
Measurements of CP observables in BĀ± ā D(ā)KĀ± and BĀ± ā D(ā)Ļ Ā± decays are presented, where D(ā) indicates a neutral D or Dā meson that is an admixture of meson and anti-meson states. Decays of the D(ā) meson to the DĻ0 and DĪ³ final states are partially reconstructed without inclusion of the neutral pion or photon. Decays of the D meson are reconstructed in the KĀ±Ļ ā, K+Kā, and Ļ +Ļ ā final states. The analysis uses a sample of charged B mesons produced in proton-proton collisions and collected with the LHCb experiment, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 2.0, 1.0, and 5.7 fbā1 taken at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV, respectively. The measurements of partially reconstructed BĀ± ā D(ā)KĀ± and BĀ± ā D(ā)Ļ Ā± with D ā KāĻ Ā± decays are the first of their kind, and a first observation of the BĀ± ā (DĻ0 )Dā Ļ Ā± decay is made with a significance of 6.1 standard deviations. All CP observables are measured with world-best precision, and in combination with other LHCb results will provide strong constraints on the CKM angle
Observation of the decay Īb0 ā Ļc1pĻā
The Cabibbo-suppressed decay Ī 0 b ā Ļc1pĻ ā is observed for the first time using data from proton-proton collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6 fbā1 , collected with the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. Evidence for the Ī 0 b ā Ļc2pĻ ā decay is also found. Using the Ī 0 b ā Ļc1pKā decay as normalisation channel, the ratios of branching fractions are measured to be B Ī 0 b ā Ļc1pĻ ā B Ī0 b ā Ļc1pKā = (6.59 Ā± 1.01 Ā± 0.22) Ć 10ā2 , B Ī 0 b ā Ļc2pĻ ā B Ī0 b ā Ļc1pĻā = 0.95 Ā± 0.30 Ā± 0.04 Ā± 0.04 , B Ī 0 b ā Ļc2pKā B Ī0 b ā Ļc1pKā = 1.06 Ā± 0.05 Ā± 0.04 Ā± 0.04 , where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic and the third is due to the uncertainties in the branching fractions of Ļc1,2 ā J/ĻĪ³ decays.

Search for CP violation in D(s)+āh+Ļ0 and D(s)+āh+Ī· decays
Searches for CP violation in the two-body decays D + (s) ā h +Ļ 0 and D + (s) ā h +Ī· (where h + denotes a Ļ + or K+ meson) are performed using pp collision data collected by the LHCb experiment corresponding to either 9 fbā1 or 6 fbā1 of integrated luminosity. The Ļ 0 and Ī· mesons are reconstructed using the e +e āĪ³ final state, which can proceed as three-body decays Ļ 0 ā e +e āĪ³ and Ī· ā e +e āĪ³, or via the two-body decays Ļ 0 ā Ī³Ī³ and Ī· ā Ī³Ī³ followed by a photon conversion. The measurements are made relative to the control modes D + (s)ā K0 S h + to cancel the production and detection asymmetries. The CP asymmetries are measured to b
Angular analysis of B0āDāāDā+s with Dā+sāD+sĪ³ decays
The first full angular analysis of the B0 ā DāāDā+ s decay is performed using 6 fbā1 of pp collision data collected with the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The Dā+ s ā D+ s Ī³ and Dāā ā D 0 Ļ ā vector meson decays are used with the subsequent D+ s ā K+KāĻ + and D 0 ā K+Ļ ā decays. All helicity amplitudes and phases are measured, and the longitudinal polarisation fraction is determined to be fL = 0.578Ā±0.010Ā±0.011 with world-best precision, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The pattern of helicity amplitude magnitudes is found to align with expectations from quark-helicity conservation in B decays. The ratio of branching fractions [B(B0 ā DāāDā+ s ) Ć B(Dā+ s ā D+ s Ī³)]/B(B0 ā DāāD+ s ) is measured to be 2.045 Ā± 0.022 Ā± 0.071 with world-best precision. In addition, the first observation of the Cabibbo-suppressed Bs ā DāāD+ s decay is made with a significance of seven standard deviations. The branching fraction ratio B(Bs ā DāāD+ s )/B(B0 ā DāāD+ s ) is measured to be 0.049 Ā± 0.006 Ā± 0.003 Ā± 0.002, where the third uncertainty is due to limited knowledge of the ratio of fragmentation fractions
Study of Bs0 ā J/ĻĻ+ĻāK+Kā decays
The decays Bs0 ā J/ĻĻ+ĻāK+Kā are studied using a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fbā1, collected with the LHCb detector in proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13 TeV. The decays Bs0 ā J / ĻKā 0K ĀÆ ā 0 and Bs0 ā Ļc1(3872)K+Kā, where the K+Kāpair does not originate from a Ļ meson, are observed for the first time. Precise measurements of the ratios of branching fractions between intermediate Ļc1(3872)Ļ, J / ĻKā 0K ĀÆ ā 0, Ļ(2S)Ļ and Ļc1(3872)K+Kā states are reported. A structure, denoted as X(4740), is observed in the J/ĻĻ mass spectrum and, assuming a Breit-Wigner parameterisation, its mass and width are determined to be mX(4740)=4741Ā±6Ā±6MeV/c2,ĪX(4740)=53Ā±15Ā±11MeV, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. In addition, the most precise single measurement of the mass of the Bs0 meson is performed and gives a value of mBs0=5366.98Ā±0.07Ā±0.13MeV/c
